EditorinSide Drumheller

Dear Editor,

I attended an information meeting in Hanna last week, and now I am afraid for the future of my province, should the present government remain in power. Keith Wilson, a lawyer and a man who has studied these things for over a year, presented the information regarding the “Alberta Land Bills.” Th e term refers to Bills 19, 24, 36 and 50. Th ese were all brought into the provincial legislature and voted unanimously into law by the members of the 40 year old Progressive Conservative Party. (Remember this at voting time). Th ere is a theme to these bills which interlocks them one to the other, the combination of which concentrates absolute power into the Progressive Conservative Cabinet. You know what is said about absolute power. It corrupts absolutely. In this province we have something called the Expropria-tion Act. It is in place to see that you are treated fairly, and fairly compensated should your land be taken by the government for public use. Th e fi rst of the Land Bills, number 19, gives Cabinet the power to freeze your land, for whatever period of time it may choose. Th is freeze can be extended to your bank and mu-nicipality. What this means is that anything you may want to do with or on your land will re-

quire written permission from the Minister of Infrastructure. All this with no resource to the courts and no compensation. Bill 19’s intent is to go around the Expropriation Act, so that government has taken away your right to be fi nancially compen-sated when your land is taken for public use. Forget about court, because this bill and its siblings deny you that right also. Bottom line, you are prohibited from do-ing anything on your own land that might increase its value. Bill 24 was passed so that gov-ernment might have a place to store the CO2 it’s going to spend $2-billion on capturing. In law, the surface owner owns from the surface to the center of the earth, excluding mines, minerals and water, but including all the po-rous spaces government might use to store CO2. Bill 24 neatly passes ownership of those spac-es, formerly your property, to the government, on all private lands. Bill 36, crafted by Ted Morton (yes, he wants to be premier), is a bit of evil. Th is document gives the provincial cabinet minis-ter complete authority over any decision aff ecting water leases, mineral rights, timber leases or grazing rights. Section 11 of the Act allows Cabinet to take those rights from you whenever, how-ever, and for whatever reason Cabinet decides. Again, there is a restriction to fi nancial compen-sation, and a removal of access to appeal to the courts. Just as they give themselves raises, so to have they made themselves the high-est authority in the land! You may think that the pre-ceding does not concern you, but only farmers, ranchers and land-owners. Th e last, Bill 50 should disabuse you of any such idea. What Bill 50 does is take the de-cision making process out of the hands of the Alberta Utilities Commission, again putting it in

the hands of Cabinet. Th e Com-mission normally conducts a needs assessment to determine if a new power line is a public need or merely a company want. Cabi-net has all the powers you have been reading about, and now it has decided that Albertans need $16-billion worth of new trans-mission lines. Here’s the kicker. Th e Alberta government requires all Alber-tans to pay ATCO and AltaLink the full cost of construction of the new power lines, and then gives these companies full own-ership and guarantees 9% rate of

return and they send you a nice monthly power bill. Sweet deal! Th is Progressive (Regressive?) Conservative government wants complete control over your life, and the “Alberta Land Bills” go a long way to achieving that. In Communist Russia, it was called central planning. Remember that four of the six candidates, (ex-cluding Mar and Orman) seeking the leadership of the PC party, voted for these bills, and helped bring them into law. Do you want this kind of government? I don’t.

Chip Aiello

Marcel Robinson is a comfort-ing fi xture in Drumheller. He is always at sporting events or any other gathering in the valley with a black plastic bag in hand. Most of the time he is watch-ing, and chatting with young and old alike. He is also picking up the occasional bottle. In fact, bottles are his main source of income. Th at is what made it even more upsetting when Glenda Wright learned that someone had taken a collection of Marcel’s bottles he had ready to drop at the depot. “I learned on Facebook that a large number of bottles he had been collecting were taken,” said Wright. “I don’t know Marcel very well but I have met him sev-

eral times and quite like him.” Indeed, Marcel explains, he did lose some bottles. He said that participants in slo-pitch at the ball diamond put aside their bot-tles for him to collect. However, before he could make the pick-up they were taken. Wright made a post on her Facebook status and started to collect bottles. She has amassed a fair amount, and other friends have collected bottles to help re-place his loss. Last Friday morning, the bot-tles were delivered to Marcel. Th e generosity of friends added up to two truck loads of bottles. “I think everyone has expe-rienced someone taking some-thing that wasn’t theirs, and it is kind of nice to get a little help once in a while,” said Wright.

Residents work to replace Marcel’s bottle loss

After learning that Marcel Robinson had bottles taken from him, some friends decided to chip in to help. On Friday morning (l-r) Meghan Stevenson-Heistad and Glenda Wright presented Marcel with a cache of bottles collected to help him out.

Mountain View Credit Union proudly presented a $15,000 cheque to Habi-tat for Humanity Mountain View. Th e funds were raised through the generous sup-port of sponsors and golf-ers at the Credit Union’s 1st Annual Charity Golf Classic held on July 7, 2011 at Coy-ote Creek Golf Resort near Sundre. In all, 96 golfers enjoyed a beautiful day to help Moun-tain View Credit Union raise money for this very worth-while orga- niza-tion. “ T h i s e v e n t w a s

a great display of how busi-ness partnership with a not-for-profi t organization can achieve a goal that will posi-tively impact Central Alber-ta,” said Jim Stone, member of the Board of Directors for Habitat, who was in atten-dance to receive the cheque. “Habitat has such strong support in our communities, and we appreciate the many ways which local businesses, like the credit union, make our projects possible.” “We are very pleased that the funds raised at this year’s tournament will go towards building Habitat’s next home in Carstairs in 2012,” added President and CEO, Bob

Marshall. “Mountain View Credit Union

has been proud to support Habitat for several years, and to see the positive diff erence that they can make to local individual families, and to our communities overall. “A big thank you goes to all the sponsors, golfers and volunteers who helped make the 2011 Mountain View Credit Union Charity Golf Classic a success,” said Mar-shall. Mountain View Credit Union is looking forward to hosting our Charity Golf Classic each year, to enjoy

a great day of golf while raising mon-

ey for our local organizations.

Have you ever had the opportunity to watch a cattle dog or a sheep dog work a herd or a fl ock? I’ve never really seen a cattle dog at work, but I’ve seen sheep dogs do their thing. It’s only been on television of course, but even so, it was a real joy to see. Th ese animals are born with a herding instinct, and are taught commands that control and direct their instinct. Th ey react to voice, whistle and hand signals. So good are they, that sometimes it appears they have made their move ahead of the shepherds command. And energy. Th ese dogs run all day, back and forth, checking a stray, confronting an aggressive animal, keeping up with men on horses. In fact I have been told that one man on horseback, and a good cattle dog can move a small heard as effi ciently as three or four men on horseback. Skill, energy, intelligence, and companionship, all for a bowl of dog chow, a bowl of water and a pat on the back. You can’t aff ord to buy help like that.

A friend of mine (the guy who makes appointments whenever I need my car serviced) sent me this, and I found it kinda funny. • Youth today have it easy, much easier than we did when we were their age (my friend and I are both over 40). Th ey don’t know how good they have it. It’s a freaking utopia. • We had no internet, because there were no computers. You wanted to know something, or look up something, you walked to the library, took out a book, and actually turned a page. • No computer, no email. You had to actually write to someone with a pen and paper. Then you had to walk to the post office to mail, and wait, sometimes for days, for a reply. Can you imagine! • X-box, Blackberry, Mp3? You had to use your imagination, and if you wanted to download music, forget about it. If you wanted to steal music, you went to the music store and shoplifted it yourself. CD’s? Try 8 track tapes, the tape of which had a habit of coming unravelled, making it pretty much useless. • “Call waiting” Ha! You waited alright, until one call was finished, and another could be received. • You were told to play outside, all day. No electronic gizmos to soothe and confront. Go inside and you do chores. Youth today are living in an easy, breezy world, the same one our par-ents thought we inhabited when we were young, and the same one their parents thought they inhabited when they were young.

Tourism in Drumheller may have taken a slight dip, but is not a cause for concern say area operators. Th e opinion given from the tourist attractions in the val-ley is the un-seasonal weather in early July may have played a part in the decrease in the numbers of tourists. Th e World's Largest Dino-saur (WLD) had 16,781 visi-tors between July 1 and July 17 of this year. “We are down a little com-pared to last year, but we feel there’s no cause for concern,” explained Kathy Little, Drum-

heller and District Chamber of Commerce Manager. Little said the slight drop could be seen when the Pas-sion Play was running; weath-er also had an eff ect on their numbers. “Crews from CTV were at the dinosaur on July 15 for the fi lming of a commercial promo for the London 2012 Summer Olympics,” said Lit-tle. Overall it's a positive im-provement for July at the WLD. Th e Royal Tyrrell Museum is holding pretty strong, but had a slight decrease in visi-tors due to the unusual sum-

mer weather. Th e Tyrrell is working with the Drumheller Marketing Organization (D.M.O.) to at-tract visitors on-line with promotions and mobile ad-vertising with links to the Tyrrell’s website. “We are working on attract-ing northern Alberta, draw-ing from the Edmonton area,” said acting director of Exhib-its and Communications Lisa Making. Southern Alberta travellers are doing more day trips to the museum. Th e Atlas Coal Mine is cel-ebrating the Mining Centen-nial. Jay Russell, program di-rector at the Atlas, said, “Th is year we have seen an increase

of visitors from the Western Europe area, France and Hol-land, and that’s been really neat.” Th e Atlas Coal Mine also

provided an outreach pro-gram for youth and it's been cool to see them back with their parents, Jay Russell commented.

With elation, the Drumheller Rotary Club offi cially opened the new gazebo at Rotary Park near the Sunshine Lodge. Residents of Sunshine Lodge and the Hill View Lodge came out to celebrate the moment as the ribbon was cut. “It was a pleasure to build it for you and for your use,” said Rotary Club president elect Brent Pedersen. Th e project was funded by the Rotary Club, which raised $20,000 for the project. Th ey

were supported by Davis Con-struction, who did the concrete work, and LPR donated the concrete. Lorne Cole and Erin Krabsen did the electrical work. Hill View resident Joyce Bell donated the funds to outfi t the gazebo with cushions for resi-dents to sit. Bell, along with Dr. Ken Jul-son, on behalf of the Rotary, cut the ribbon. Janet Senior, CAO of the Drumheller and District Se-niors Foundation thanked the Rotary Club on behalf of the foundation and the residents.

“Th is is truly an amazing thing,” she said. Marcel Augey, who coor-dinates activities at Sunshine Lodge, said the new gazebo gives residents more opportni-ty to enjoy the outdoors. It pro-vides shelter from the sun and is screened in to protect from insects. Members of the Rotary Club installed the gazebo in June and Augey says they have already had a number of campfi re par-ties and barbecues.

(l-r) Rotarians Bob Friesen, Lorne Cole, Brent Ped-ersen, Dr. Ken Julson and Joyce Bell of Hill View Manor, along with with Rotarians Debi Kennedy,

Bev Krabsen and Helen Peers cut the ribbon on the new gazebo at the Rotary Park.

As original as it getsSimon Berg recently put his 1975 Ford F-250 XLT Camper Special back on the road. He inherited the truck from his grandfather a couple years ago but just brought it home from B.C. The three quar-ter ton has a big old 460 and it is as original as it gets, aside from the fresh wheels. It has a pristine green interior to match the un-mistakable paint. Berg’s grand-father used it to haul his camper, so even the inside of the box is unscathed.

The Drumheller Valley is a unique, scenic valley, created by millions of years of erosion by wind and water.

About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the hot tropical swamps and forests that covered this area. Today, the fossil-ized remains of the dinosaurs can be seen in museums all over the world, and the lush vegetation exists as coal seams throughout the area.

The Valley was first inhabited by Thomas Greentree, who, in 1902, built his homestead on what is now the Town of Drumheller. The Greentree House became a stop-over place for early pioneers coming into the district.

It was Sam Drumheller who first exploited rich coal reserves

in the area and conceived the idea of a townsite in the Valley. Jesse Gouge opened the first coal mine in 1911. In 1913, the Calgary-Drumheller railway line was opened and the coal industry boomed. More than 40 mines were soon operating in the Valley. Mining towns like Nacmine (short for North American Collieries Mine), Midlandvale, Rosedale, East Coulee, Wayne, and Newcastle developed notorious reputations as highrolling boomtowns with bootlegging and gambling. When gas and oil were discovered in other parts of Alberta, the importance of coal diminished and the economy of the Valley turned to other things.

Today, the Town of Drumheller relies on agriculture, gov-ernment services, oil and gas, and tourism for its economic prosperity.

The Drumheller Valley is a unique, scenic valley, created by millions of years of erosion by wind and water.

About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the hot tropical swamps and forests that covered this area. Today, the fossil-ized remains of the dinosaurs can be seen in museums all over the world, and the lush vegetation exists as coal seams throughout the area.

The Valley was first inhabited by Thomas Greentree, who, in 1902, built his homestead on what is now the Town of Drumheller. The Greentree House became a stop-over place for early pioneers coming into the district.

It was Sam Drumheller who first exploited rich coal reserves

in the area and conceived the idea of a townsite in the Valley. Jesse Gouge opened the first coal mine in 1911. In 1913, the Calgary-Drumheller railway line was opened and the coal industry boomed. More than 40 mines were soon operating in the Valley. Mining towns like Nacmine (short for North American Collieries Mine), Midlandvale, Rosedale, East Coulee, Wayne, and Newcastle developed notorious reputations as highrolling boomtowns with bootlegging and gambling. When gas and oil were discovered in other parts of Alberta, the importance of coal diminished and the economy of the Valley turned to other things.

Today, the Town of Drumheller relies on agriculture, gov-ernment services, oil and gas, and tourism for its economic prosperity.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Travel is in your immediate future, Aries. You just won't be sure yet if it will be a long trip or a day just to get away from it all. Regardless, it'll involve family, too.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Start putting your money where your mouth is, Taurus. There's only so long a person can keep stringing along others. Sooner or later your time will be up.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, it's time to make up your mind about an important decision that's going to effect others. The next few weeks will be extra busy, so start preparing.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, you are in a festive mood and you don't really know how you are going to celebrate. Others are willing to join the party if you let them participate.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23You haven't been feeling like your-self lately, Leo. Others have noticed the change in your demeanor and have questioned it. Things will sub-side shortly.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, avoid making any big chang-es in the next few days. Your per-sonal life is about to undergo a big change, and you will have a lot of choices to consider.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23It's alright to take other's advice once in a while, Libra. You don't al-ways have to march to the beat of a different drummer. Think about this in the next few days.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, there's so much going on daily that it's easy for you to feel scatterbrained and make mistakes. It's defi nitely hard to focus when there is confusion.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, a relationship is strained and you are asked to me-diate the situation. Don't get too ex-cited about being a referee, though. It comes with much responsibility.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, you need a break from things but don't know what the break will be just yet. Start jotting down ideas that will relax your mind and your body.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, things are about to heat up and you may feel overwhelmed in the next few days. Don't let your temper get the better of you or it could lead to more stress.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, bide your time because change is on the horizon. Events that unfold will not be what you ex-pected.

Here’s how it works: Sudoku puzzles are for-matted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fi ll each row, column and box. Each number can ap-pear only once in each row, column and box. You can fi gure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Paella is one of my favorite dishes to serve a crowd. Because there are so many diff erent items included, it is easy to please various people because they can simply pick out what they like and what they may dislike.

With water splashing in all directions, you’ll hear children yell to their parents with huge smiles on their faces: “Did you see me? I did it!” Th e Drumheller Aquaplex has had no problem with the wet weather this sum-mer. Classes at the Aquaplex have seen a great increase in enrolment for children this year. Th e instructors have taught 55 preschool chil-dren and helped to build their skills and confi dence in the water. Th e Swim Kids program had an average of 80 kids at-tending, keeping instructors busy in and out of the pool. Th ese summer classes operate with a combined staff of 25 high school and university students helping with the lessons. Maureen Russell, a grand-

ma from Drumheller, says her three grandsons come from Vancouver for the summer and choose only to take swimming lessons at the Aquaplex. “Th e kids just love the instructors here and it's a wonderful facility,” replied Russell. Patrons new and old have been able to enjoy swim-ming lessons and achieve new levels in their swim-ming skills. Ann Wade credits her staff , saying, “I have an amazing staff and I’m so thankful to have them.” While the usage for both indoor and outdoor pools has seen equal use through-out the summer, the indoor pool will be closed on Sep-tember 6 for draining and painting, but the outdoor pool will remain open for everyone to enjoy.

Ethan Fletcher and Charlie Calon fl y effortlessly into the deep end of the outside pool. The combination of staff and swimmers have kept the Aquaplex pool area very busy this summer.
